Meet the Heart Behind the Brand

Hey y’all! I’m Andrea, Natural Haircare XtraOrdinair, a former stylist/barber and the founder of Mae B 4 U Naturals, a premium Black-owned haircare and beard care brand rooted in community, culture, and care. What started in 2015 as handmade formulations for friends, family, and salon clients has grown into a powerful product line launched in 2020—crafted for women, men, and children with textured hair.


Now, I’m launching something deeper than a campaign.
I’m starting a movement to bring healing, haircare, and empowerment back into our local communities and I’d love your support.

What Is “Strands to the Streets”?
It’s about taking the very strands we nurture daily, our hair, and using them as a symbol of connection, confidence, and community power.


Our Mission
Strands to the Streets is a movement rooted in purpose where beauty meets impact. Powered by Mae B 4 U Naturals, we’re taking natural haircare beyond the bottle, building real connections through premium products, mentorship, and community uplift.

This is about showing up, giving back, and growing together—one strand at a time.

Where Your Donations Go
Your contributions are more than just dollars!
They're seeds of empowerment that help grow this movement from the ground up. We’re starting with a $4,000 goal and scaling from there. Here’s how your support fuels the mission:


Expand Inventory (30%)
Helps us produce larger batches of Infinity Hair Growth Oil and other bestsellers to meet wholesale demand from retailers, stylists, and beauty supply stores.

Wholesale Starter Kits (20%)
Covers the creation of affordable, turn-key kits for barbers and stylists to retail Mae B 4 U Naturals products and uplift their own businesses.

Community Education Events (20%)
Funds pop-ups and workshops that teach natural haircare, product development, and digital entrepreneurship in local neighborhoods.

Care Package Donations (15%)
Supports the creation and delivery of self-care kits to grieving families, shelter residents, and seniors needing a little TLC.

Mentorship & Student Sponsorships (15%)
Provides student stylists with free access to training, digital resources, and mentorship programs that help them build bold careers.

Why This Matters
Once upon a time, the beauty space was the heartbeat of our neighborhoods, a hub, a safe space, a sanctuary. Stylists, barbers, and clients weren’t just customers, they were family. During 2020, we’ve lost some of that connection.


Strands to the Streets is here to restore that bond.
We’re filling the gap—one crown, one product, one community event at a time.
Your donation—big or small—helps bring that legacy back.
